In these critical essays Gregory Stephenson takes the reader on a journey through the literature of the Beat Generation: a journey encompassing that common ethos of Beat literature— the passage from darkness to light, from fragmented being toward wholeness, from Beat to Beatific. He travels through Jack Kerouac’ s Duluoz Legend, following Kerouac’ s quests for identity, community, and spiritual knowledge. He examines Allen Ginsberg’ s use of transcendence in “ Howl,” discovers the Gnostic vision in William S. Burroughs’ s fiction, and studies the mythic, visionary power of Lawrence Ferlinghetti’ s poetry. Stephenson also provides detailed examinations of the writing of lesser-known Beat authors: John Clellon Holmes, Gregory Corso, Richard Fariñ a, and Michael McClure. He explores the myth and the mystery of the literary legend of Neal Cassady. The book concludes with a look at the common traits of the Beat writers— their use of primitivism, shamanism, myth and magic, spontaneity, and improvisation, all of which led them to a new idiom of consciousness and to the expansion of the parameters of American literature.

Colm Tóibíand, any award-winning publisher of These Expertand Brooklyn, transforms this treatment for the challenging marriages in between fathers along with sons—in particular any stresses between fictional giants Oscar Wilde, Harry Joyce, W.B. Yeats, and additionally their particular fathers. Wilde loathed their my dad, despite the fact accepted that they are very much alike. Joyce's gregarious papa forced your boyfriend's boy coming from Ireland thanks to her volatile biliousness and drinking. At the same time Yeats's dad or mom, the latest electrician, is unsurprisingly an ideal conversationalist in whose yak was first far more svelte versus works he produced. These kinds of well known adult men as well as fathers which improved good condition these folks can be purchased living with Tóibín's retelling, as do Dublin's vibrant inhabitants.

The Great Code By:Northrop Frye,Alvin A. Lee Published on 2006-01-01 by University of Toronto Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) Considered by many to be Northrop Frye's magnum opus, The Great Code (1982) reflects a lifetime of thinking about the patterns and meanings of the Bible. In this new edition of The Great Code, Alvin A. Lee presents a corrected and fully annotated version of Frye's text, as well as a comprehensive introduction to help contextualize this important work and guide readers through its allusive passages. Lee's introduction provides a synoptic account of the role of the Bible in Frye's intellectual and spiritual odyssey, as well as a description of how The Great Code as a book came into existence, and an introductory critique of the shape and meaning of the book's argument. The Great Code is culturally allusive to a high degree. It takes much of its inspiration from the Bible itself, including a profusion of biblical passages, but also from the author's

The Economy of Literature By:Marc Shell Published on 1993-09-01 by JHU Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) Why did coinage, tyranny, and philosophy develop in the same time and place? Marc Shell explores how both money and language give |worth| by providing a medium of exchange, how the development of money led to a revolution in philosophical thought and language, and how words transform mere commodities into symbols at once aesthetic and practical.
